Abstract
A micropropagation protocol has been standardized for an important medicinal plant Aristolochia indica L. using shoot tip and nodal explants. The synergetic effect of BAP at 1.0 mg/L induced more number of adventitious shoots from the nodal explants. In vitro shoots were excised from shoot clumps and transferred to rooting medium containing IAA and IBA. Maximum number of roots were induced in medium containing IBA (1.0 mg/L). Plantlets thus developed were successfully transferred to green house. The piantlets showed high survival rate (65%).
